Attention deserves the Hedevar Castle. The fortress is located in the vicinity of Budapest. It was built in 1162 on a hill, where previously there was a modest building made of wood, which little resembles a modern fortress. In Matrahaz, tourists are waiting for the castle Shashvar. The castle complex is surrounded by small fortifications and a magnificent park. In combination with mountain landscapes and huge ancient pines, Shashvar Castle looks fascinating! In Budapest itself is collected an incredible number of attractions. This is the "Fortress Quarter", and several ancient churches, and museums, and art galleries.
